Voice Surgery for Hoarseness

(Yoskarn Clinic Bangkok – Over 40 Years of Excellence in Voice Restoration)

Hoarseness, or changes in the voice quality, can result from various conditions affecting the vocal folds (vocal cords). While mild hoarseness may come from temporary irritation, chronic or persistent hoarseness often indicates an underlying structural or functional issue that requires medical attention.

Common Causes of Hoarseness

Aside from aging vocal folds, the most common causes include:

• Vocal Cord Paralysis – Often due to nerve injury during neck or chest surgery, or trauma. In many cases, however, the exact cause remains unknown.

• Vocal Nodules – Common among singers, teachers, or individuals who use their voice excessively or improperly.

• Benign or Malignant Tumors – Frequently observed among heavy smokers and alcohol drinkers, involving the larynx or vocal folds.

• Vocal Fold Scars – May result from recurrent infections, surgical trauma, or chronic inflammation.

• Congenital Defects (Sulcus Vocalis) – A rare condition where a groove forms along the vocal fold’s edge, impairing vibration and mucosal wave, leading to persistent hoarseness.

Among these causes, vocal fold paralysis and vocal nodules are the most common.
